REDLANDS — Corban University has become a second home for the Larick Family.

Kaci, a senior at Redlands East Valley, signed a national letter of intent to play soccer at the NAIA school in Salem, Oregon.

Kaci will join her older sister Emily at Corban.

“I was able to go up there and spend a week with her,” Kaci said. “I was able to get a feel for the school on my own while with my sister.”

Larick also considered Cal Baptist but went with Corban.

“The coaches there are really positive and my sister is living there right now,” Larick said. “I trained with the team when I was there. The coaches liked me and the team was very welcoming.”

Larick plans on majoring in elementary education. She also plans on having an impact on the soccer team. Last season the Warriors went 11-6-3 overall and were 6-2-1 in the Cascade Collegiate Conference. Corban is also associated with the National Christian Collegiate Athletic Association. Corban’s season ended in the semifinals of the Cascade Collegiate Conference Championship Tournament.

“I hope to go up there and make a difference on the team,” Larick said. “I want to go out there and earn a spot.”

Larick is currently a team captain on REV’s team.

“This year we have a strong team,” Larick said. “It’s a team that really gets along. I think there is a lot of potential for the season.”

Larick received glowing reviews about the college from her sister.

“She is doing real well up there,” Kaci said. “They have a great team with a lot of great team bonding. The coaches are nice and super positive.”
